WGU Computer Science degree vs Cyber security

[StoicJ]

FWIW-

Guild Education works with some large companies that offer tuition assistance. I think, for example, a person could work at places like Walmart and Lowes (even part-time) and qualify to have 100% of their tuition, books, etc covered for some cybersecurity programs. There's an AAS cybersecurity @ Rio Salado that's covered, and a BS cybersecurity @ University of Maryland GC and Wilmington University. Programs covered might differ between various employers so it'd take a little digging to nail down options.

You said this young person had no job experience so thought this might be worth considering.
